Write A Note To Your Younger Self


Recommended Posts

  • 4 weeks later...

Dear younger me,

from eight years ago:

 

You should have known,

get out of your shell.

 

You were in the wrong place

at the right time

You found the wrong person

at the wrong time

 

You should be out there

at the right place

You should see her

with all the right chances.

 

You will understand and yet not know.

For you are me, and I am you.

Do not waste the rise and fall

of the next nine hundred suns.

 

There shall be a name,

One borne of the wind,

In the stars, flourish

Bright in the west.

 

---- Your future self,

from three thousand sunsets later

young me,

 

1. you were young, childish, selfish, and immature. you should have listened. you should have tried to understand, now he's gone. yes, sweetheart, he died, young. but then again, who were we to know it would have happened?

 

2. instead of trying your first major in college, you should have pursued the one that you finished from the onset. by now, you could have been a lawyer (that was your drean, right?) or an md specializing in psychiatry (your other dream) or you could have finished the post graduate degree related to your field. but just to let you know, we don't regret making those decisions. we learned, i learned a lot!

 

3. you will love and keep loving. don't close your heart.

 

4. you will fall, several times. but you will stand up better. just keep on holding your head up high.

 

5. lastly, offer more. not of yourself for if you do, it will consume you until there is nothing left but an empty shell. you've got loads of love to share. just make sure you give it to those who deserve it. offer your friendship, something that goes beyond the superficial lovebthat everyone clamors and looks for. be yourself. don't regret. no remorse. no guilt. for you are you, imperfect, but uniquely you.

 

 

your older self
